Transparency

We believe in being open and transparent in all areas of our work. In line with the Local Government Transparency Code the following information is being provided and will be updated on a regular basis. General information about the Authority can be found in the publication scheme.

Spending

All expenditure items over £250 can be found below. Data is provided on a quarterly basis for the current plus previous two financial years and listed by month.

View details of all our recent grants to voluntary, community and social enterprises below; these were awarded under our grant application process.

During 2018/19 we paid 98% of undisputed invoices within 30 days; no late payment fees were paid during the year.

We do not have any employees whose singular role is to undertake investigations and prosecutions of fraud. However we take fraud very seriously and have strong governance arrangements in place to counter fraud of any kind; in this regard, any such investigations would be led by either the Monitoring Officer or our Internal Audit team (the latter being provided through New Forest District Council). There were no such cases in 2018/19.

The pay multiple, as at 1 April 2019, for the Authority is 3.78. As defined by the Transparency Code, this is the ratio between the highest paid taxable earnings (including base salary, variable pay, bonuses, allowances and the cash value of any benefits-in-kind) and the median earnings figure of the whole of our workforce.

The number of staff who are Union Representatives is 2 (1.45 FTE). These individuals do not devote more than 50% of their time to Union duties. The only trade union represented in the Authority is Unison.
